A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Got RetroArch setup and working, got a controller, got PS2, N64, SNES emulators currently but likely get all old systems at some point.

Recommendations for games you found worth goong back to?

Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 1 and 2 on PS2 are excellent action RPGs

I remember trying to get these to work a while back and failing... I wonder how they are working now. Might give it a shot later. Thanks for reminding me of these gems.

The first one came out on Gamecube, so if it doesn't work on PS2 or Xbox emulators, Dolphin will for sure work since it's much more mature.

I just checked the compatibility list for PCSX2.

Baldur's Gate DA1 - https://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Baldur-s-Gate-Dark-Alliance-SLUS-20035-U--29280?amp%3Baction=lastpost

Baldur's Gate DA2 - https://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Baldur-s-Gate-Dark-Alliance-2-SLUS-20675-U?amp%3Baction=lastpost

Both games seem to be fully playable from start to end. DA1 has a fix listed for some of the issues. DA2 has a 4GB patch listed.

You might want to try both of these if you decide to give them another go.
